He saw I was pre-diabetic and asked when my next diabetes test was because the Cortizone shot would produce a sugar spike. He even told me that a bone that I broken 2 years ago had healed. He was also a good communicator, showed compassion, calm demeanor. He treated me like a person and when he injected my hips, I felt almost nothing. All other bursa hip injections that I have had have hurt immensely (APP, UAB higlands ground floor). Either medication has changed since then or he is a highly skilled Doctor who can inject without even hurting you. Amazing! I would have liked the receptionist to be much more polite and speak more clearly. She seemed impatient. I don't think it was because the practice was busy, when I got there an hour later it was empty, but who knows. The waiting room was comfortable, clean, cool with cold water bottles to drink! Bathroom was spotless and parking was easy/free. Perfect place to go if you live in Birmingham city, Homewood, Mountain Brook because you don't hit rush-hour at all. (2:30-4:30 on Monday

Visiting a place like this is like visiting a mechanic, it's usually not for a happy reason. Thus…read morewas why we were here tonight... my daughter rolled her ankle at cheer practice. The trainers at her high school recommended an x-ray so we brought her here. Located in the relatively new and very nice and eclectic "Brocks Gap", OS1 is in between a ballet studio and Moe's BBQ. Also in the same strip are The Trak Shak, Whole Scoop Ice Cream Shop, Santos Coffee and Tre Luna Bar & Kitchen. A very small front door leads to a modest and simple waiting room with a complimentary Keurig and canned sodas. There's a small counter with a receptionist. OS1 calls themselves a Sports Injury Clinic and indeed they are. They have trained sports medicine specialists on site. They have convenient hours closing as late as 7. They claim to be less expensive than the ER with decreased wait times. Finally, they can take X-rays and have MRI equipment on-site! We arrived with our injured daughter about 40 minutes before closing. They normally don't see new appointments past 6, but we were greeted with a friendly face and after checking w/ the medical staff, they immediately took Sarah "to the back" while Tammy filled out the paperwork. In about 10 minutes, we were back in the exam room where Dr. Beidleman was already examining her ankle. From start to finish, we were walking out of OS1 in about 30 minutes. Dr. Beidleman was kind, sincere, sympathetic and most of all professional. His nurse who came in to help show Sarah how to use her fancy boot was also fantastic. Everyone who was there was extremely friendly to the point that it kind of creeped me out... in a good way! So having said all that, I need to add that at 7pm, the NCAA National Championship game Georgia vs Alabama was going to be broadcasted and their entire staff might have been trying to get us out as quickly as possible. Also, since it was the last hour before close, there wasn't any other patient there so we were their center of attention. Would our experience be any different if the NC game wasn't coming on at 7 or if we were there in the middle of the day with 5 other patients?!? I don't know. But I do know that this experience was exceptional and we will be returning. In fact, we have a followup appointment in a week. I'll write an update...

LOL Dr. Varley and all his staff are compassionate and very easy to talk too. Either Online, Portal Use or Calling in making appointments, paying bills, Etc., is very easy. Southern Pain Management offers all the traditional pain/nerve blocks, Radio Frequency Ablasions, Etc; Several new innovative procedures including Ketamine infusion treatments at affordable cost to patients. The science of Ketamine Infusion makes too much sense for insurance companies to my help pay for such a thing. They would much rather pay for pain medicine. To my knowledge insurance pays ZERO MONEY for Ketamine Infusion Treatments. Hunter Chatham, CRNA manages all IV Theropy, he too is excellent, professional and compassionate. You can't go wrong coming to Southern Pain Specialist

He was the only doctor in the Birmingham area who was willing to refill my implanted pain pump. Before finding him, I had to drive to Slidell, LA every month to have it filled. He and his staff work together as a team. It is comforting to see teamwork in one's medical care. They are also very good at what they do, and each one plays a part in your care. I have suffered from hip and thigh pain since I had a defective hip replaced with a non-defective one. I thought that the pain was caused by all the surgery. Thank goodness Dr. Varley had other impressions. He discovered that the pain was emanating from my spine and that Radio Frequency Ablation (RFA) was the solution. I had been having it performed on the other side of my spine for several years, with good results. Walking without pain is truly amazing, after suffering with it for so many years. I highly recommend Southern Pain Specialists for anyone with back/spine problems.

The location was easy to find on Waze and although Waze wanted us to turn right onto St. Vincent Drive, we could see the outpatient care center ahead on University Boulevard. We turned left into the center's driveway and we parked our car. We were greeted at the door by two nurses using an over-the-bed table - doing Covid screenings on everyone entering the building. Masks were required and masks were also provided if anyone needed a mask. Once inside the building, we were seated in the waiting room with social distancing enforced until we were called. Once registered, family members are asked to wait in the car during the procedure. The nurses called with an update and family members were given a time for patient pickup. Staff were timely, courteous, professional and caring. One star removed for the over-the-bed table and for floors and an older building that needed a little extra care.
